A person with whom you can discuss your legal issues and take advices on those issues but that person does not conduct the proceedings inside the court is known as a solicitor. There are two categories of lawyers in the UK. The one with whom you can only discuss your matters is solicitor while the other is known as barrister who conducts the proceedings inside the court. Hence, the legal issues of a client can only be resolved with the mutual consultation with both of the lawyers. There are several countries where a solicitor sometimes acts as a barrister and sometimes as a legal advisor. Thus, there is no specific distinction between the both in many countries.
